How to use
In all cases, it is possible to navigate the pages using buttons on the
remote control, but because the commands available must apply to all
manufacturers of DVB equipment, some on screen commands may
not correspond exactly to the remote control buttons.
For example:
3
You can enjoy news, weather forecasts and subtitles, etc. (depending on the broadcaster)
Note
As soon as you switch to a DVB channel with links to a teletext service,
software is downloaded in the background to enable the teletext function.
This means that when switching to a DVB channel, you should wait for
approximately 5 seconds before pressing the TEXT button - this will allow
the software to download. If you press the TEXT button before download is
complete, there will be a short delay before the text screen is displayed.
While navigating DVB teletext, you will nd there is a short delay when
moving between pages while the page downloads. There is often a prompt
shown somewhere on the page (for example "Loading") to let you know that
this is happening.
DVB (digital broadcasting) mode
DVB teletext services
DVB teletext services differ greatly from analogue teletext.
When you switch to a DVB teletext service, the images
you see can contain graphics and text, laid out and
controlled in a manner decided by the broadcaster.
You can check if the programme has teletext information.
